Hi, I have a question : I own the Enhanced Edition of The Witcher so no problem with me but a friend of mine have the original version and want to update to enhanced version with patch 1.4 but since wine is not able to handle copy protection and the 1.4 patch need online verification (so copy protection active and running) is there a way to install this patch ?? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thx, GNU_Raziel
I found alone how to do it : 1-Make a fresh install of your ORIGINAL game The Witcher with wine. 2-Download all needed files from The Witcher Website, this mean : "TWEE_Upgrade.exe" (a ~900mb patch file) "TWEE_YOUR-LANGUAGE_language_pack.exe" "TWEE_adventure_Side_Effects.exe" (optional bonus quest) "TWEE_adventure_The_Price_of_Neutrality.exe" (optional bonus quest) 3-Find yourself witcher.v1.4.5.1282.nodvd.rar and replace the exe of the game with the one in this archive. 4-Now double click on "TWEE_Upgrade.exe" and install the update. You'll notice that it bypassed the registration message. 5-Replace the game exe with a working NO-DVD to bypass the protection requirement (remenber it curently DO NOT WORK with wine, see bug report on the game page) 6-Enjoy the Enhanced Edition of the witcher. Let's hope Wine dev will soon find a way to make the game protection working so there wil be no need of those crap No-DVD files anymore...
